Many have heard the recommendation that hot tea is drunk even in countries with a really hot climate.
Komarovsky announced this information in his TikTok, reports URA-Inform.
It is believed that after a hot drink, the body becomes hot, it gives off sweat more actively, and then cools down. The most famous doctor in Ukraine explained why you need to drink hot water and who should do it.
In his TikTok, Komarovsky explained that hot drinks help us lose heat only if there is a possibility of sweat evaporation. He said that it is better to drink soft drinks and eat ice cream in the summer if you know that this is not an option.
He gave the example of residents of the same Central or Central Asia, where they drink hot tea from a bowl in forty-degree heat and advised not to engage in nonsense, because the difference between the organisms of residents of Ukraine and Asia is very large.
According to Komarovsky, who drinks hot tea in the heat, should stay in an air-conditioned room, besides, the older the person, the more carefully he should take this advice. In addition, factors such as wind and draft (that is, the possibility of evaporation of sweat) cannot guarantee the absence of overheating.
Signs of overheating may include the following:
— pale skin;
— dry mucous membranes;
— thirst;
— headache;
— increase in body temperature.
In this case, drinking hot tea and other hot drinks is strictly prohibited. Otherwise, there is a risk of getting heatstroke and, instead of improving your well-being, noticeably worsening it.
We would like to remind you that it was previously reported that WHO conducted a study on the content of trans fats in Ukrainian products: the results were stunning.
